It would detonate it, shatter it, blow it apart.
A 30.06 from 500 yards away will shatter the femur of a mooseā¦ thereās an order of magnitude more kinetic energy in a 30.06 than a 5.56 round.
So, knowing nothing about 5.56 rounds but having shot a .30-06 at moose/deer/elk: in the 100-200 yard range the bullet will break a rib, travel through the lungs/heart/etc and then often exit the other side on a smaller animal (deer), or be sitting just inside the hide of a larger one (elk/moose).
I have no opinions on the rest of it thatās just been my experience.

Sorry I should have clarified that I meant that at the range of the Kirk shot, roughly 150 yards, a 30.06 has approximately an order or magnitude more kinetic emergy than a 5.56.
Roughly 900 ft-lbs vs roughly 2150 ft-lbs.
Thats another 0, aka, another order of magnitude.
